Aenkral Hillvfb, one of Genera) Grant' BtafT during the war, will npoak Thursday night in this pity, lie will lj worth hearing. TiiKATjtR goent will he delighted lo learn that Mrs. Oatcs's physician linn given his consent for her to appear this " evening, and that the will bo in good voice. The young kdy 'who Aim taken the leading part for two night i on auch short notice has made a fine Itn predion, and should receive due recognition in that bohalf. The Company hm nome fine voices a harltone that is notahly good and some of the best actors that have ever appeared In the cIohh of performance they have given which is worthy much Iwtter patronage than they have received. We hone to seo the Jioiihc well filled to-night. The management hat won largely upon this community, by iu square manner of doing business. Wo commend it to tho prew elsewhere. We have not observed any correction in the Hentincl of the false charge that a Ke-' publican juiper called tho St. Louis Press had used Insulting language in speaking nf German citizens. Wc have called the attention of the Sentinel to tho fact that it has given currency to a low electioneer- ing lie. We are gratified to know that the dirty job wits dono in the absence of the editor, hut would it not be better to remove the dishonorable slain, by n frank . statement of the truth ? There were several paragraph of a like character, all on the same topic, in the same Ishuo of tho paper. If any Itepub-i lican was heard to utter tho language' charged by tho Sentinel, in another para- i graph, ho is a person whom it were base j tlattery to call a fool. Let his name be produced. If not, we shall lie forced to I believe that this also is a baxe lie, coined by the ad interim of tho Sentinel. A pAHAORAPit from the New York Tribune, selected for comment in yestcr-dny'n State Juvusai by some misadventure got into tho paper without comment or proper credit. As tho State Jouekal claims to bo a decent paper, it is necessary to sny that the paragraph did not originate with uh. The matter is this: For some weeks (he Trlbutio has been printing column alter column of wholesale lies founded upon an alleged gift of lands to the President by one Jones, afterward Minister to Belgium. The Tribune knew these to be lies, for they had been exposed as such by the Tribune itself, eighteen months ago. Its namesake of Chicago was in tho same boat. Finally such proof was presented that these pa-jiem were shamed into a retraction. The Chicago article of that name makes its retraction in threo lines, admitting with' evident reluctance that "There appears to bo nothing in the caw?," (wo quote its wordn.) Tho New York Tribune makes its retraction in a very short paragraph unparalleled in decent society for mean, spirited, cowardly Imunuution, while affecting lo make reparation for its criminal assault upon tho good name of the President and the late Minister to Belgium. Even this craven apology Is secreted in one corner of the pajwr, among minor matters seldom looked at by ordinary readers of the paper. Htaktunu as it may apjwar, Boston has developed a Chief of Police who has given birth to a sensible idea in connection with tho treatment of drunken men. Chiefs of Police ns a general thing are not given to creating sensiblu humanitarian ideas, and it Is therefore the more wonderful that ono should be unearthed who could find It in his heart to depart from tho usual "fivo dollars and costs" punishment. "As to tho treatment of drunkenness," he says: "I would have persons who are arrested for simple drunkenness committed or discharged at the option of the jwlice when in their custody, and convicted or discharged at tho option of tho court when brought there for trial. If convicted, not to be fined, thereby taking away tho small pittance left to buy bread for a starving family; but I would have the culprit set to work under restraint for tho benefit of that family, if he had one." While we are committed to tho sensibleness of tho suggestion, and its adaptation to large cities, in smaller places the policeman making tho arrest should lie required to report with his prisoner to u Station House ollicer, who should havo the power to relonwor commit, and be required to furnish a list of those released to the Chief of Police. The enstom of placing a man given to in t emigrate habits In confinement while his family Is deprived of his support, be it ever so Bmall, is one of thoso customs of civilization which does not reflect creditably on tho wisdom of the nge.

General Boynton, who has bean ono of the sharpest critics of whatever ha has held to be amiss in tho Administration, baa written a letter to the Cincinnati Gazette, in which he gives his impressions of the President ami his surrounding personally. Meiicraf Boynton, as one of the most ablo and reputable of the Washington correspondent a class now occupying as prominent and influential a position as any portion of the editorial force of their journals respectively has hod ample opportunities to observe the President in all. his relations. As a writer he is candid to the very vcrgo where candor overstepH the -limit into faultfinding. There Is no more dunger that he will over-, praisu the President than that a staunch j Calvlnilt will overpraise tho Pope. He I is so perpendicular that he team hack a litth. - General Boynton begins his letter by 1 the statement that the slanders ugainst the President have so far overleajied their purpose as to fall on tho other side, and create a feeling of regard for him among men who have heretofore ranked with his opposers. Men some men who stand opposed to him politically have denounced these infamous slanders with scorn and contempt. As Boynton says, "the President's own mouth is shut. No matter how thick tho balls of slander fly, he must rest quiet." He cannot descend into tho slough of defamation to rescue his good name from the parly scavengers who are seeking to drag it in the mire. If his illustrious deeds as a soldier, and his career as a civil magistrate, have not been sufficient to placo his fame above the reach of these creatures, in the hearts of the people he has served so well,m scramble with tho filthy rabble of Dnnns and their kind, can serve. The funic of its servants Ib part of the heritage of the He-public, and it is for the people to guard this fame, if they would secure the devotion of the sons of the Kepuhlic in its times of utmost need. Now, what of the character of this man, who is represented by hi? enemies as sor did and mean, a man of low vices, a drunkard and dog fancier, a horse jockey and a corrupt trader in ofliciul patronage, a lowbred, uu gentlemanly, ignorant, brutal person nge, without education,brains or good manners? Is it possible that a man of so many Infamous qualities has o far imposed upon the American Nation as to secure the first place In war, the first place in peace, and (may wc not truthfully say) the first placo in the hearts of m patriotic countrymen? Let us see what Boynton says about that : For six years Gen. Grunt, us an officer of the army, as President, and a man, has been a somewhat prominent person nj?o in Washington circles, both ollicial and social. In all that time not s particle of evidence has ever come to the ashington office of the Gazette, whether in the lorm of gossip or of more definite charge, that connected Gen. Grant personally with any dishonest transaction whatever. In the multifarious operations of the Government with which tho departments arc al ways burdened, there have been under his AdministratioiKos there alwavs will be un der any Administration, claims worked through by various means, which at times seemed tainted with corruption; but evidence to connect the President with them, even remotely, has never Iwen forthcoming.In spile oi tlic countless charges with which the lnnd Is filled, tho fact remains that hero in Washington, where their truth or falsity can be best tested, every fuir man, of either party, will answer promptly that he believes Gen. Grant, personally, a thoroughly honest man. Since he first came here, in all his inter course with his fellow men, whether ollicial or social, he has constantly been the same quiet, modest, tnim-sHkcn, un milled gentleman. And to fully appreciate such a statement as this, the reader must try to picture' to himself tho crowds of ollice seekers, the pressing duties of purely official life, the countless political quarrels which are laid before him, und tho ten thousand trials of patience with which tho American democratic system makes it possible to bore 'and harass a President. That ho does thus bear himself in this straight for wan), unassuming, always dignified, and decent way, is the simple fact. As to his habits, there Is one charge that, in a letter nf this character, ought not to In ignored. It is widely asserted that l'rcsiucnt ttrant is an intemperate man. This is tho mildest form of the charge, its other fhapes are worthy of those who originated them. Nnce he entered tho White House his dailv life has not been passed behind a veil, 1 lis opponents have had as free access to him as his friends. It is hardly an exaggeration to say that he lives continually under tho eyes of thoso who, to say the least, would not hesitate to take advantage of what they saw wrong, in far as to report it. When in Washington, his daily habit is to take a long walk throuirh the avenues. During the fashionable season he is near ly every day present either at a reception or an entertainment of so mo sort. And yet, though his lifo Is thus laid open to the public, there has never been the least evidence presented In Washington that 1'residcnt ilrant has, at any timo, been seen under the influence of liquor. For e fleet, among the plain common sense ooonld who make tin the great mass of the thinking public, the While II on so has been represented as a sort of kingly establishment, wholly out of keeping with alt ideas or American simplicity. Thoso who know the Kxecutivo Sli sion as it is, know that, considering the fact it is the house which tho nation furnishes its President, it is plain as a building, and only plainly furnished. There are a score of white Iiouhcs in the country, and plenty of private houses that excel it in architectural displuv, in convenience, and in furniture. Below, In the public part of tho house, arc three attendants to show visitors through tho parlors, and curb the American propensity to clip off' specimens of lace from tiie curtains in the East Boom. These three attendants compose thcentiie downstairs force of this Kingly establishment. Up stairs the President has a reception room, where men and women of all national!-tics and all grades in life are received and treated politely by Gen. Dent. Tl e Hocretarics have working rooms, and Iwsldcn these, the entire upstairs force Is made up of about threo messengers and doorkeepers. Here, except on Cabinet days, tho Presldentreceivesallwhochooso to come, or nil who can ho received during business hours. And this great, aristocratic establishment Is reduced, in fact, to a placo where any well behaved man, woman or child, white, block or Indian, can cuter, without even Knocking or ringing a bell, from nine .o'clock In the morning till inreo in uie aucrnoon, me year round, ex cept on Hundays; can range through the puriors, tne sitting-rooms, and thoreception-rooms, without a word from any attendant, and, if there is any reason for it, can see the President, too, in their turn. Tho universal testimony of those in public and social life here who have personal knowledge of the matter is, that the family life of tho President jsvery beautiful. With a very few exceptions he spends his evenings at home und in the family circle. His wife, though meeting all the requirements of her position does not assume to lead in matters of fuxhion; and his children are everywhere spoken of as totally devoid of tho assumptions which would naturally ho exjiected of young persons occupying their position. There is no private establishment in the land more quiet and orderly upon the Sabbath than the White ifouse. The business offices are closed, and the house is nut open in any part to the public. The President and his family are regular attendants at church, and iu the outward respect which he shows to the Sabbath he does exactly what so many thousand of his countrymen, who are not church members but church goers, do, and he docs it in the same unostentatious way. Vet, notwithstanding this general order and simplicity of conduct about the White House, the attempt is now making, by those, who should know better, to show that General I brant s whole course as President Is such as to unite the entire religious community against him. Huch is the substance of the late diatribe from President Mahan, of Oberlin. And yet, if he had only ordinary information in regard to the condition of a flairs in Washington, ho would have known that at no previous period of its modern history have tho chief men in power, from the President down, been , more generally men who are regular at-! tendants upon religious services on the Sabbath, and who pay so much outward respect to what all society, either religious or non-religious, concedes to the Sabbath. The fact is, there is not a mom quiet or orderly city in the land than Washington J is on Sunday, and the fuet is that the government, in the persons of its officials and in the absolute suspension of all its business, makes it so and keeps it so. Just now the Democratic journals are ; pleasing themselves with a very well writ ten account of Gen. Grant's stables. The letter in question has much truth woven in with materials not altogether finished. The part omitted is just what is nee led to destroy tho effect which tho Democratic journals aro attempting to produce by mi-! i uiiuniuiin iu uie icuer. The fact is that the new State Deimrt- ment site embraced that occupied by the stables attached to tiie White Irouse not Gen. Grant's stables, for he lias none, but tho stables which belong to tho White House as a public building. The committee of Public Buildings and Grounds in recommending the appropriation for tho now buildinc, and every member of Congress in voting for it, knew that it in volved a removal of the stable. A majority of the members of the proper House committee saw the plans for the new nla- oieB and approved them. Tho President ; never saw them, and was not consulted by I .Mr. Mullett in regard to the matter. The ! destruction of tho old stable, when the i selected site was cleared, of necessity involved mo uuuuingoi another. Exactly as the White House stable was and as the carriage house was removeJ from the east side of tho White House during Mr. Johnson's term, and ns the green house wns moved on another occasion, in exactly the same way, wns this late matter accomplished. As to the style and cost, lite architect, without consulting I'reeiiiem urunl, went on and erected such a building as tho proximity of tho newly authorized War and State departments, and the extension of tho President's grounds, and the newly authorized road ways passing near its site made absolutely necessary. The building is far from ornate, and many private citizens about our large cities have much more elegant stables, but anything plainer would have lieen a positive injury to public property about it, and in the end a waste. But it is useless in the close of a general letter to begin to noticcsjiceific slanders with which tho opposition journals are filled. The object of this letter is rather to hear testimony'regarding the almost universal opinion in Washington concerning the President's habits and the character of his surroundings. There Is no intention of claiming freedom from errors in administration; but to testify in regard to tho personal integrity nnd personal good standing of a man who certninlv merits just treatment at tho hands of all loyal men; hut who now is the target of almost as many slanders as tho relu-ls tired bullets in the campaign he waged against them. II, Y. II. Candidate GitKKi.Ev'Hillnaturcd, "bullyragging" attack upon the Roldiero at Pittsburg has stirred up more feeling In that region than even the iteration of his old secession doctrines, and tho hypocritical attempt to convince his high tariff audience that he had not abandoned that Issue in his struggle for office. The soldiers feel that they have the disposition to deal generously with a fallen foe, and they do not relish lectures from such "higglers" and meddler as Mr. Greeley. They remember his shrewish bcratlngs during tho war, when hercgularlyscrenm-ed fm the worst thing to bo done at tho most inopportune time, and then called for the disgrace of the man who was fool enough to do what ho had ncreamcd to have done. General Logan expressed the sentiment of tho soldiers cxuctlv, in a compact, sinewy little speech at tho close of the proceedings which was not report ed to us by telegraph. It is not too late yet to copy It : CoMitADKf: One won! let mo say before we part ono word before we return to our homes. There is no reconciliation required on our part. Wo are the friends and aiders of the prosperity, tho neaco of our country, and we sustain the banner of our old comrades. When those men who drew their blades airainst this country Im- come reconciled to that banner nnd to the authority of this nation, then shall har mony and peace prevail, ror our own part, there is no need of reconciliation. iMt us go homo fully determined to win tllirt 01-Cnt vlctorV.

Aenkral Hillvfb, one of Genera) Grant' BtafT during the war, will npoak Thursday night in this pity, lie will lj worth hearing. TiiKATjtR goent will he delighted lo learn that Mrs. Oatcs's physician linn given his consent for her to appear this " evening, and that the will bo in good voice. The young kdy 'who Aim taken the leading part for two night i on auch short notice has made a fine Itn predion, and should receive due recognition in that bohalf. The Company hm nome fine voices a harltone that is notahly good and some of the best actors that have ever appeared In the cIohh of performance they have given which is worthy much Iwtter patronage than they have received. We hone to seo the Jioiihc well filled to-night. The management hat won largely upon this community, by iu square manner of doing business. Wo commend it to tho prew elsewhere. We have not observed any correction in the Hentincl of the false charge that a Ke-' publican juiper called tho St. Louis Press had used Insulting language in speaking nf German citizens. Wc have called the attention of the Sentinel to tho fact that it has given currency to a low electioneer- ing lie. We are gratified to know that the dirty job wits dono in the absence of the editor, hut would it not be better to remove the dishonorable slain, by n frank . statement of the truth ? There were several paragraph of a like character, all on the same topic, in the same Ishuo of tho paper. If any Itepub-i lican was heard to utter tho language' charged by tho Sentinel, in another para- i graph, ho is a person whom it were base j tlattery to call a fool. Let his name be produced. If not, we shall lie forced to I believe that this also is a baxe lie, coined by the ad interim of tho Sentinel. A pAHAORAPit from the New York Tribune, selected for comment in yestcr-dny'n State Juvusai by some misadventure got into tho paper without comment or proper credit. As tho State Jouekal claims to bo a decent paper, it is necessary to sny that the paragraph did not originate with uh. The matter is this: For some weeks (he Trlbutio has been printing column alter column of wholesale lies founded upon an alleged gift of lands to the President by one Jones, afterward Minister to Belgium. The Tribune knew these to be lies, for they had been exposed as such by the Tribune itself, eighteen months ago. Its namesake of Chicago was in tho same boat. Finally such proof was presented that these pa-jiem were shamed into a retraction. The Chicago article of that name makes its retraction in threo lines, admitting with' evident reluctance that "There appears to bo nothing in the caw?," (wo quote its wordn.) Tho New York Tribune makes its retraction in a very short paragraph unparalleled in decent society for mean, spirited, cowardly Imunuution, while affecting lo make reparation for its criminal assault upon tho good name of the President and the late Minister to Belgium. Even this craven apology Is secreted in one corner of the pajwr, among minor matters seldom looked at by ordinary readers of the paper. Htaktunu as it may apjwar, Boston has developed a Chief of Police who has given birth to a sensible idea in connection with tho treatment of drunken men. Chiefs of Police ns a general thing are not given to creating sensiblu humanitarian ideas, and it Is therefore the more wonderful that ono should be unearthed who could find It in his heart to depart from tho usual "fivo dollars and costs" punishment. "As to tho treatment of drunkenness," he says: "I would have persons who are arrested for simple drunkenness committed or discharged at the option of the jwlice when in their custody, and convicted or discharged at tho option of tho court when brought there for trial. If convicted, not to be fined, thereby taking away tho small pittance left to buy bread for a starving family; but I would have the culprit set to work under restraint for tho benefit of that family, if he had one." While we are committed to tho sensibleness of tho suggestion, and its adaptation to large cities, in smaller places the policeman making tho arrest should lie required to report with his prisoner to u Station House ollicer, who should havo the power to relonwor commit, and be required to furnish a list of those released to the Chief of Police. The enstom of placing a man given to in t emigrate habits In confinement while his family Is deprived of his support, be it ever so Bmall, is one of thoso customs of civilization which does not reflect creditably on tho wisdom of the nge.

General Boynton, who has bean ono of the sharpest critics of whatever ha has held to be amiss in tho Administration, baa written a letter to the Cincinnati Gazette, in which he gives his impressions of the President ami his surrounding personally. Meiicraf Boynton, as one of the most ablo and reputable of the Washington correspondent a class now occupying as prominent and influential a position as any portion of the editorial force of their journals respectively has hod ample opportunities to observe the President in all. his relations. As a writer he is candid to the very vcrgo where candor overstepH the -limit into faultfinding. There Is no more dunger that he will over-, praisu the President than that a staunch j Calvlnilt will overpraise tho Pope. He I is so perpendicular that he team hack a litth. - General Boynton begins his letter by 1 the statement that the slanders ugainst the President have so far overleajied their purpose as to fall on tho other side, and create a feeling of regard for him among men who have heretofore ranked with his opposers. Men some men who stand opposed to him politically have denounced these infamous slanders with scorn and contempt. As Boynton says, "the President's own mouth is shut. No matter how thick tho balls of slander fly, he must rest quiet." He cannot descend into tho slough of defamation to rescue his good name from the parly scavengers who are seeking to drag it in the mire. If his illustrious deeds as a soldier, and his career as a civil magistrate, have not been sufficient to placo his fame above the reach of these creatures, in the hearts of the people he has served so well,m scramble with tho filthy rabble of Dnnns and their kind, can serve. The funic of its servants Ib part of the heritage of the He-public, and it is for the people to guard this fame, if they would secure the devotion of the sons of the Kepuhlic in its times of utmost need. Now, what of the character of this man, who is represented by hi? enemies as sor did and mean, a man of low vices, a drunkard and dog fancier, a horse jockey and a corrupt trader in ofliciul patronage, a lowbred, uu gentlemanly, ignorant, brutal person nge, without education,brains or good manners? Is it possible that a man of so many Infamous qualities has o far imposed upon the American Nation as to secure the first place In war, the first place in peace, and (may wc not truthfully say) the first placo in the hearts of m patriotic countrymen? Let us see what Boynton says about that : For six years Gen. Grunt, us an officer of the army, as President, and a man, has been a somewhat prominent person nj?o in Washington circles, both ollicial and social. In all that time not s particle of evidence has ever come to the ashington office of the Gazette, whether in the lorm of gossip or of more definite charge, that connected Gen. Grant personally with any dishonest transaction whatever. In the multifarious operations of the Government with which tho departments arc al ways burdened, there have been under his AdministratioiKos there alwavs will be un der any Administration, claims worked through by various means, which at times seemed tainted with corruption; but evidence to connect the President with them, even remotely, has never Iwen forthcoming.In spile oi tlic countless charges with which the lnnd Is filled, tho fact remains that hero in Washington, where their truth or falsity can be best tested, every fuir man, of either party, will answer promptly that he believes Gen. Grant, personally, a thoroughly honest man. Since he first came here, in all his inter course with his fellow men, whether ollicial or social, he has constantly been the same quiet, modest, tnim-sHkcn, un milled gentleman. And to fully appreciate such a statement as this, the reader must try to picture' to himself tho crowds of ollice seekers, the pressing duties of purely official life, the countless political quarrels which are laid before him, und tho ten thousand trials of patience with which tho American democratic system makes it possible to bore 'and harass a President. That ho does thus bear himself in this straight for wan), unassuming, always dignified, and decent way, is the simple fact. As to his habits, there Is one charge that, in a letter nf this character, ought not to In ignored. It is widely asserted that l'rcsiucnt ttrant is an intemperate man. This is tho mildest form of the charge, its other fhapes are worthy of those who originated them. Nnce he entered tho White House his dailv life has not been passed behind a veil, 1 lis opponents have had as free access to him as his friends. It is hardly an exaggeration to say that he lives continually under tho eyes of thoso who, to say the least, would not hesitate to take advantage of what they saw wrong, in far as to report it. When in Washington, his daily habit is to take a long walk throuirh the avenues. During the fashionable season he is near ly every day present either at a reception or an entertainment of so mo sort. And yet, though his lifo Is thus laid open to the public, there has never been the least evidence presented In Washington that 1'residcnt ilrant has, at any timo, been seen under the influence of liquor. For e fleet, among the plain common sense ooonld who make tin the great mass of the thinking public, the While II on so has been represented as a sort of kingly establishment, wholly out of keeping with alt ideas or American simplicity. Thoso who know the Kxecutivo Sli sion as it is, know that, considering the fact it is the house which tho nation furnishes its President, it is plain as a building, and only plainly furnished. There are a score of white Iiouhcs in the country, and plenty of private houses that excel it in architectural displuv, in convenience, and in furniture. Below, In the public part of tho house, arc three attendants to show visitors through tho parlors, and curb the American propensity to clip off' specimens of lace from tiie curtains in the East Boom. These three attendants compose thcentiie downstairs force of this Kingly establishment. Up stairs the President has a reception room, where men and women of all national!-tics and all grades in life are received and treated politely by Gen. Dent. Tl e Hocretarics have working rooms, and Iwsldcn these, the entire upstairs force Is made up of about threo messengers and doorkeepers. Here, except on Cabinet days, tho Presldentreceivesallwhochooso to come, or nil who can ho received during business hours. And this great, aristocratic establishment Is reduced, in fact, to a placo where any well behaved man, woman or child, white, block or Indian, can cuter, without even Knocking or ringing a bell, from nine .o'clock In the morning till inreo in uie aucrnoon, me year round, ex cept on Hundays; can range through the puriors, tne sitting-rooms, and thoreception-rooms, without a word from any attendant, and, if there is any reason for it, can see the President, too, in their turn. Tho universal testimony of those in public and social life here who have personal knowledge of the matter is, that the family life of tho President jsvery beautiful. With a very few exceptions he spends his evenings at home und in the family circle. His wife, though meeting all the requirements of her position does not assume to lead in matters of fuxhion; and his children are everywhere spoken of as totally devoid of tho assumptions which would naturally ho exjiected of young persons occupying their position. There is no private establishment in the land more quiet and orderly upon the Sabbath than the White ifouse. The business offices are closed, and the house is nut open in any part to the public. The President and his family are regular attendants at church, and iu the outward respect which he shows to the Sabbath he does exactly what so many thousand of his countrymen, who are not church members but church goers, do, and he docs it in the same unostentatious way. Vet, notwithstanding this general order and simplicity of conduct about the White House, the attempt is now making, by those, who should know better, to show that General I brant s whole course as President Is such as to unite the entire religious community against him. Huch is the substance of the late diatribe from President Mahan, of Oberlin. And yet, if he had only ordinary information in regard to the condition of a flairs in Washington, ho would have known that at no previous period of its modern history have tho chief men in power, from the President down, been , more generally men who are regular at-! tendants upon religious services on the Sabbath, and who pay so much outward respect to what all society, either religious or non-religious, concedes to the Sabbath. The fact is, there is not a mom quiet or orderly city in the land than Washington J is on Sunday, and the fuet is that the government, in the persons of its officials and in the absolute suspension of all its business, makes it so and keeps it so. Just now the Democratic journals are ; pleasing themselves with a very well writ ten account of Gen. Grant's stables. The letter in question has much truth woven in with materials not altogether finished. The part omitted is just what is nee led to destroy tho effect which tho Democratic journals aro attempting to produce by mi-! i uiiuniuiin iu uie icuer. The fact is that the new State Deimrt- ment site embraced that occupied by the stables attached to tiie White Irouse not Gen. Grant's stables, for he lias none, but tho stables which belong to tho White House as a public building. The committee of Public Buildings and Grounds in recommending the appropriation for tho now buildinc, and every member of Congress in voting for it, knew that it in volved a removal of the stable. A majority of the members of the proper House committee saw the plans for the new nla- oieB and approved them. Tho President ; never saw them, and was not consulted by I .Mr. Mullett in regard to the matter. The ! destruction of tho old stable, when the i selected site was cleared, of necessity involved mo uuuuingoi another. Exactly as the White House stable was and as the carriage house was removeJ from the east side of tho White House during Mr. Johnson's term, and ns the green house wns moved on another occasion, in exactly the same way, wns this late matter accomplished. As to the style and cost, lite architect, without consulting I'reeiiiem urunl, went on and erected such a building as tho proximity of tho newly authorized War and State departments, and the extension of tho President's grounds, and the newly authorized road ways passing near its site made absolutely necessary. The building is far from ornate, and many private citizens about our large cities have much more elegant stables, but anything plainer would have lieen a positive injury to public property about it, and in the end a waste. But it is useless in the close of a general letter to begin to noticcsjiceific slanders with which tho opposition journals are filled. The object of this letter is rather to hear testimony'regarding the almost universal opinion in Washington concerning the President's habits and the character of his surroundings. There Is no intention of claiming freedom from errors in administration; but to testify in regard to tho personal integrity nnd personal good standing of a man who certninlv merits just treatment at tho hands of all loyal men; hut who now is the target of almost as many slanders as tho relu-ls tired bullets in the campaign he waged against them. II, Y. II. Candidate GitKKi.Ev'Hillnaturcd, "bullyragging" attack upon the Roldiero at Pittsburg has stirred up more feeling In that region than even the iteration of his old secession doctrines, and tho hypocritical attempt to convince his high tariff audience that he had not abandoned that Issue in his struggle for office. The soldiers feel that they have the disposition to deal generously with a fallen foe, and they do not relish lectures from such "higglers" and meddler as Mr. Greeley. They remember his shrewish bcratlngs during tho war, when hercgularlyscrenm-ed fm the worst thing to bo done at tho most inopportune time, and then called for the disgrace of the man who was fool enough to do what ho had ncreamcd to have done. General Logan expressed the sentiment of tho soldiers cxuctlv, in a compact, sinewy little speech at tho close of the proceedings which was not report ed to us by telegraph. It is not too late yet to copy It : CoMitADKf: One won! let mo say before we part ono word before we return to our homes. There is no reconciliation required on our part. Wo are the friends and aiders of the prosperity, tho neaco of our country, and we sustain the banner of our old comrades. When those men who drew their blades airainst this country Im- come reconciled to that banner nnd to the authority of this nation, then shall har mony and peace prevail, ror our own part, there is no need of reconciliation. iMt us go homo fully determined to win tllirt 01-Cnt vlctorV.
